    I will weigh in on Sunday, but wanted to disclose my particulars to get us started :)

    My current weight (today) is 204. My goal weight for the 13 weeks is 185. I will add my measurements when I can find the tape measure.

    I am mostly breastfeeding (supplement formula a few ounces a week). I work full time and have one baby who is 36 weeks old.

    I formed the group after one of my moms groups did 2.0. I really wanted to do it but couldn't get/stay motivated to keep up with it. I knew I needed the challenge to stay committed.

    Tell me about you :):)

    Hi there! I currently weight 210 lbs. My goal weight for the 13 weeks is 172 (pre preg weight). I'll have to do the measurements at a later time.

    I am currently breastfeeding my 9 month old daughter. She eats solids as well. I am hoping to be lucky enough to breastfeed her until at least a year. If I can get to 172 I will continue past a year. If I cannot then I will wean her to determine if my hormones are getting in the way. I am not currently working so I'm hoping to be able to really devote my time to this while my baby girl naps.

    I found out about this group from a Facebook group. I need all the accountability I can get!

    Looking forward to this. Thanks for setting it up!

    Hi there! I'd like to join the group! I've lost most of my weight already but I need to change up my workouts (and get the tummy fat off!) and it would be nice to be motivated by other mommies!

    CW 127.4
    GW 122.5

    Bust 36
    Waist 29
    Hips 35

    I'm a stay at home mom of a 2.5 year old with special needs. He is my inspiration and I started my weight loss journey to show him the only thing that can hold us back in life is ourselves. Looking forward to getting to know you all!

    Have a great day!

    Here goes. I don't mind posting this here, but let's just preface by saying I have a hard time losing weight, persay, but I have been able to lose inches in the past. Here are all my stats as of 12:30 pm today:

    Weight: 218.4 (my biggest ever in my life)
    13 week goal: 190 (is that too much or too little of able difference?)
    Measurements:
    Bust - 45 in.
    Waist - 39 in. (You need to know I measured my true waist, not where my belly button is, which is about 2 inches below)
    Hips - 51 in.
    Upper thigh - 28 in.
    Upper arm - 15.5 in.

    I was breastfeeding at some point, but due to mastitis and supply issues I had to stop when my daughter was about 3 months. She is now 16 months old and eats regular food. She is my only so far, but I hope to have more in the near future. I am working part time one or two days a week as as teacher. I just finished my Master's, so I'm actively looking for a job next year full time. I hears about this group from Mommywood on facebook!

    Happy Monday everyone!
    Caw: 232
    GW: 200

    I am a first time mom who is at the highest weight I have ever been in my life. I was on bed rest due to pre-eclampsia and my weight skyrocketed. I have a 2 1/2 month old daughter. Due to breast reduction surgery when I was a teenager I am unable to breastfeed I have tried for the last 12 weeks and with hours of breastfeeding and pumping everyday was only getting 4 ounces.

    I am ready to kick my own butt, and get started with this challenge. Living in Canada I am on maternity leave till November, so I have a ton of time to dedicate myself to this challenge. I look forward to getting started.

    Baseline Challenge Info:
    Current Weight (in pounds) - 163 lbs
    13 Week Goal Weight (in pounds) - 150 lbs
    Measurements- oops! need to find a tape measure!

    For Team Determination
    Breastfeeding or no = no
    Working or no = yes, full time, 40+ hours
    Number of kids = 2
    Age of youngest little one = 16 months old

    I saw a post in the forums, and thought this would be a good group of supportive women to join! I have my annual with my OB in June and I know she's going to make a comment about the baby fat if I haven't lost it by then (she's a tough cookie)!

    For all the moms in the DC area, I'm open to meeting up and getting working out together if it helps.

    Good morning.
    I'm a SAHM with a 22 mo. I'm going to finally start and finish my Masters, go it alone while hubby is deployed, and lose all this weight in 2015. Thanks for the opportunity to be part of the group.
    CW: 143

    I'm no longer breastfeeding.
    I plan to measure myself when I find the tape!

    Hello! I'm finally back at work and can be in front of a computer to put some focus into this.
    Baseline Challenge Info:
    Current Weight: 180
    13 Week Goal Weight: 170 (is this realistic? I hope so!)
    Measurements - I can do these starting next week. I have to find my tape measure!

    My daughter is 5 months and I am no longer breastfeeding her. I work full time at an office job. We have a personal trainer that comes twice a week so I am hoping to start doing that in addition to the Bikini Body youtubes. I found out about the group through a couple of Alexandria. VA FB groups. I would be open to doing weekend walks with anyone local (if the weather cooperates!).

    Happy Day 1, Mommies!

    I have done my official photographs and weigh-in / measure-in activities and am reporting to you all for accountability. I'd like to say I'm happy about it, but I'm 15lbs heavier (and many inches larger) than my largest recorded non-pregnancy weight in my life. <sigh> Still, I'm looking at this as a tremendous opportunity to get fit with you all!

    Day 1 Weight: 202.4 (13 Week goal is 185)

    Bust: 44.75"
    Waist: 40.5"
    Upper Arm: 13.75"
    Lower Arm: 9.75"
    Wide Hip: 47"
    Narrow Hip: 44.25"
    Thigh: 24.5" (I'm actually wider higher at 29.5")
    Calf: 15"

    Ok I will post more info as I can later tonight. I am in the same boat as most others have found themselves... heavier now post baby than I was at my heaviest.

    Current Weight: 183
    Goal Weight: 150ish 13 Week Goal Weight 160
    I will add measurements later this evening and maybe photos since I know this is for motivation, encouragement, and we are all determined in this goal!

    I have an 18, soon to be 19 month old little girl. I no longer breastfeed, that just never worked with my fast paced work schedule. I work full time in DC and love it, but can be a struggle sometimes with trying to juggle, toddler/family, work, health, fitness, and social time (yes mommy needs a little bit of a life as well).

    I can't wait to see the progress we are all now about to make.
